All American: Homecoming (2022) s01e02 Episode Script

1 OK, so if I move American lit to Mondays and African diaspora to Fridays, - it's good, right? - Heh.
It works.
You know, experts say talking to yourself is a sign of insanity.
No.
It means I'm alert, aware, and able to process my feelings, so experts can mind they business, period.
OK, so Simone Hicks is spitting hot fire in the early morning.
Boy, come on.
You know that's what I do.
Can you believe classes are starting tomorrow? That's crazy, right? Like, you know, like, college is for real for real now.
Yeah.
It got a little too real for me last week when I got sent home from tennis for sucking.
Come on.
Those are just drills.
You got to put that in your review.
Trust me.
You're right.
Here's to turning the page.
- Come on.
- I'm supposed to dap you? - Yes.
- We hit? We got this.
OK.
Yo, where the hell you been at these last few days? Outside of practice, you've been a ghost, man.
Oh, man, just frat stuff.
Look.
I love the bruhs, but sometime they make me glad I grew up as an only child.
Ha! You got any siblings? No.
It's just me.
Why? Oh, I'm just wondering if that's why you struggle to connect with the team.
I know I've been a little hard on the guys lately.
So we're just understating things? Heh.
Man, whatever.
Hey, you know the vote for team captain is this week.
- Guys said they're gonna vote for me.
- Yeah, because they feel like they owe you for stepping up for the program, but you got to figure out a real way of bonding with the team and earning their trust.
Yeah.
You're right.
I'll dial it back, like, 10%.
Ah, make it, like, 25%.
You really underestimate how much of a pain in the ass you are.
Yeah, yeah.
Yo, what's all this? The new Damon Sims, man.
What? Emmitt Page 17 years old in Ohio.
They say he the next best thing.
Ooh, man.
92.
He's almost got you, Damon.
Emmitt, everyone's calling you the next Damon Sims.
That's quite a compliment.
Got an opinion on that? I don't see myself as the next anybody.
I'm just Emmitt Page.
I don't know what my future holds, but if I get a shot at the MLB, best believe I'mma take it.
Ho ho! Damn.
Shots fired.
Whatever, bro.
Like, y'all know this kid ain't got nothing on me And that go for anybody who got something to say about it, too.
Man, what the hell? Damn.
All right.
Listen up.
Tennis sessions will be two hours a day Monday through Saturday, weight training an hour 3 days a week, and a one-hour yoga session.
- Yes? - What about queen of the court? Ah, yes, our annual tradition.
Thea, as the reigning queen, how about you school the uninitiated? Yeah.
Well, it's teammate versus teammate in a series of single-elimination matches.
The last two women standing will battle it out to become queen of the court.
You won't get any notice, so just be ready whenever Coach calls.
All right, ladies.
Let's get to work.
Hicks, come see me.
Your physical is not current.
What? Yes, it is.
My doctor did it in April.
The A.
D.
requires physicals within 60 days of the start of school.
New rule this year.
Oh.
I'm sorry, Coach.
I didn't I don't really care how the ball was dropped.
Fix it.
Until this is all worked out, you are not allowed to participate in official team practices.
Wait.
Coach.
There has to be something we can do.
You know, there is.
You can get another physical, but until you do, you are on solo practice.
You can sign up for time in my office.
All right now.
You're all set.
I'll see you in class, honey.
OK.
Thank you.
You really been doing hair all day? Girl, yes.
Day before school starts is our busiest and most lucrative day of the year.
Maybe I need a side hustle.
After buying these books, my bank account is on "E.
" Plus, if I can't cover my copay, it wouldn't even matter if I find a doctor to do my physical.
No, girl.
What you need is a work study job.
I got some connects hiring.
I got you.
Yeah.
I think that'll be amazing.
I've got this.
First day of school is about to be lit.
Hey.
Uh! 92.
He's almost got you.
He's almost got you.
Everyone's calling you the next Damon Sims.
If I get a shot at the MLB, best believe I'mma take it.
Oh, man, um You got to go.
Uh - Ahem.
- No.
Like, now.
Damn, girl.
It's like that? Yeah, yeah.
You can't be here whenever my residents wake up.
Boys aren't allowed here after or before visiting hours, so So, it's all good.
I got early-morning football anyway.
OK.
Let's keep this moving.
All right.
Wait.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
So, I mean, I guess I'll see you whenever? Yeah, yeah, whatever.
Good-bye.
What? Are you kidding me? - Hey, Simone.
- Hey.
You good? Yeah.
I just have to sign up for court hours, and the only slot left is close to my job interview.
Yeah.
Being a student athlete is a juggling act.
- Hmm.
- Pro tip early morning workout's always longer than you think and avoid taking 8:00 classes.
Too late, huh? Where's your next class? - Height hall.
- Damn.
Yeah.
Skip the shower.
You won't make it in time.
You'll barely make it if you leave right now.
I checked the campus map.
It didn't seem that far.
I know, but you know when you look at a rear view mirror and see "objects may seem closer than they appear"? The school map's opposite of that.
Run.
Freshman, run.
- Oh, you're seri - I'm dead serious.
Go.
Yikes.
Your drip needs some work.
- Nyah-nyah-nyah.
- Good morning.
I am professor William Corte.
Welcome to American literature 1190.
Now, most of you are here to satisfy a liberal arts requirement I get it but since you are here, I will expand your minds anyway.
Novels like these are American classics.
They've endured the test of time because of their relatable characters and timeless themes, but, by and large, only novels with white authors featuring white characters are considered to be classics.
Contrary to popular belief, black stories have relatable characters and timeless themes.
Your assignment is to find them.
Do a presentation on why those novels should be read in this class.
You've been assigned into groups of 3.
Check your e-mail.
Presentations are due the day after tomorrow.
Class dismissed.
Heads up, I'm just as competitive in the class as I am on the field.
Well, who is shocked? You good? You seemed a little preoccupied in class today.
Uh, yeah.
It's nothing, just some baseball stuff.
I hear you.
I still need a physical, but Student Health hasn't gotten back to me with appointment times yet.
If we don't get an "A," I will come for both of you.
Yes.
We're partners.
- Hey, I'm - I don't care.
I hate group projects, and I want this to be over with ASAP, so let's meet at the brig cafe at lunch to discuss.
Don't be late.
So I'm guessing she's not a morning person? Bro, she's not a people person.
Uh! Uh! Uh! Uh! How much of that did you see? Enough to know that you're not surprised by your performance.
So is this when the yelling starts? Focus on bonding with your team.
But there is no team without my arm.
What you need is not gonna be found on the mound, son.
Coach, this has never happened to me before.
We need to fix my arm.
Coach.
Coach! So look, about practice yesterday, I know I was Extra.
Think the word you're looking for is "extra.
" I know, bro.
My bad.
- Look, I'm legit trying - OK.
But now coach wants me to be really bonded with the team, like, yesterday.
So clearly, chopping it up on the field isn't your ministry.
Have you thought about maybe something off the field? No, but I'm down for that.
All right, so what you into, though pool, bones, extreme sports? Do I look like an extreme sports kinda dude to you? I mean, I don't know.
I feel like it should be some type of dope story about that scar.
Nah, not really.
Huh.
Yeah.
All right.
I got a project with Simone right now, so I'll catch up with you later.
Oh, sorry.
I was finishing up with J.
R.
Well, the planning session is canceled anyway.
Thea's not coming.
Check your DMs.
What? She chose our book "Their Eyes Were Watching God," by Zora Neale Hurston.
She figured out the themes of the book, the structure of our presentation, and assigned us parts.
I'm surprised the girl didn't pick out our damn clothes, too.
Oh, this all looks fire.
- What? - Damon, this is not how group projects work.
- But it could be, right? - I'mma go find Thea.
Did we teach you nothing? What? You got called out on yard yack.
Oh, snap.
OK.
Whatever.
Look, I didn't have enough time to shower after my workout.
I'm an athlete.
It's no big deal.
Tell them.
Tell them what? When have you never not seen me dripped out? OK.
You and your big head can go.
Look, it's no big deal.
It'll all blow over, right? - Right? - It will, yeah, - with a little help from us.
- A lotta help.
A lot of help from us.
Girl, I don't know what these shoes are.
Keish, you did not have to bring all your stuff over here, too.
Girl, whatever.
The more options, the better.
OK, what do you think about this? I do not think that's me at all.
Ooh, OK.
What about this? Mm, I don't think vintage is my thing.
Girl, don't hate on the nineties.
Especially when this outfit is yours.
Help me help you.
I know.
I know.
I'm sorry.
It's just I don't know.
It's hard finding something that fits who I am when I feel like I'm a work in progress Minus the progress.
Well, until you figure out how to do the new you, what do you think about this for your interview tomorrow? Now, that is actually cute.
- Thank you.
- Ha ha! Hey, auntie.
Hey.
Oh, I know what this is ha ha! And I don't miss those days at all.
- Ooh.
- Ha ha! But y'all running behind, ain't you? First day of classes is over.
Seems we have a late bloomer.
Oh.
Missed seeing you in class, Keisha.
Um, I'm sorry, but I had to drop your class.
- Keisha - No, no, no.
It has nothing to do with that stupid whistleblower stuff.
It's just that I had to make more space in my schedule for my pre-med classes.
OK, but, honey, when are you going to tell your father that you don't want to be a doctor and want to pursue dance? You're a sophomore now.
Yeah, I made a promise to my mom.
I can't You were 9, and cancer was getting the best of her.
You know she'd never hold you to that today.
Yeah, but, Dr.
P.
, medicine runs deep in my family.
I can't just look at my dad and say I don't want to follow in his footsteps.
Wait.
Keisha, your dad is a doctor? Why didn't you say anything? Simone, now is not the time.
I mean, do you think he can help me with my physical? The Student Health Center can't fit me in until next week.
Yeah, I'm, uh I'm gonna I'm gonna go.
Well Something else you're late on learning when to choose your spots.
Hey, um, I just wanted to drop off some stuff you left at my aunt's.
Keish, look.
About last night, I'm sorry.
I was just in my selfish bag.
No, no.
It's all good.
My dad and medicine are just a sensitive topic, and, for the record, my dad's out of town right now, - so he can't help you.
I'm sorry.
- No, no, it's all good.
But, for real, are you OK? Totally, if you count Struggling with the reality of having to give up my choreography dreams as being OK.
Hold up.
You dance? - That explains a lot.
- Oh, OK.
Well, if you thought that was flexible, just wait.
- Oh, really? - OK.
I know y'all see me standing right here.
When did this become a thing? It's not a thing.
Ah.
I'll mind my business.
I gotta go anyway.
I got interviews, court time, and I got to meet up with Damon for our project.
OK.
Well, why don't you and Damon just come over to my dad's house after practice? We can do a little study/chill session.
Keisha, I actually have to get this assignment done.
And you will Promise.
Plus, we'll have the whole house to ourselves.
OK.
Bye.
Hey, uh, excuse me.
Hey, I got this court reserved right now.
No.
You had it reserved 15 minutes ago.
- You're late.
- I know.
My job interview went long, and the campus map lies.
If you're 5 minutes late, you forfeit the courts.
Them's the rules.
I mean, that's messed up, but fine.
I'll just sign up for another slot time.
Don't waste your time.
The courts are booked solid.
Well, who's booking all the court time? Of course.
Yo, are you blocking me from practicing? Um, I don't have to.
Dedication isn't an issue for the other players.
Everyone is focused on getting their time in when they can, something I could've sworn, just a week ago, you said you were going to do? Oh.
Well, so much for showing Coach Loni your dedication.
OK, so, for my closing, if I were to What are you looking at? Uh, you.
It's a nice fit.
Boy, if you don't focus on this presentation Heh heh heh! Our girl had a job interview.
What? That's what's up.
At least this week's turned around for one of us, huh? More baseball stuff on your mind? Yep.
My pitch has been off lately, like, way off.
It's never happened to me before.
Oh.
This where y'all been hiding.
Hope it's cool.
I brought a few friends.
Hold up.
How many is a few? Yeah.
- Bro.
- Huh? When I said that you could roll through, the invite wasn't for the team.
Drastic times calls for drastic measures, and a party is a perfect spot for you to get some one-on-one with the fellas.
- This is not a party.
- It is now.
- Ooh.
- Hola, beautiful people.
Make yourselves at home.
Simone Amara, hey.
What are you doing here? I swear, the last time you stepped foot in here was our senior year.
I'm just passing through.
All right.
Maybe I'm just checking on you, all right? I know this past week has been tough.
Listen, they're just words online, Marcus.
Takes a lot more than that to faze Wow.
You know - What are you doing? - I'm calling campus security.
- That's what I'm doing.
- No, you're not.
Look, I got this handled.
Like I said Takes a lot more than words to faze me.
Y'all can't handle us.
Teamwork makes the dream work, baby.
Check ball.
Yeah.
Ahem.
What's up, fellas? So where you from, bruh? Colombia, but I grew up in Miami.
Bro, I did a few showcases in Miami last summer.
If I had to pick another position, uh, man, I don't know.
Maybe They calling Emmitt Page the next me.
Like, shortstop.
I'm gonna kill centerfield.
Heh heh! I blew the competition out the water, had, like, 5 no-hitters.
This kind of release? Get outta here.
My bad.
I'm just running at the mouth right now.
- That answer your question? - I didn't ask a question, bro.
Word on the street is, y'all program might not be here much longer.
Can't trust everything you hear, man.
We're not going anywhere.
'Cause y'all got Sims' golden arm? So far, that's been nothing but hype.
Man, if I got stomped like you guys, I wouldn't even show my face.
Y'all are trash this year.
Say one more thing about my team.
Whatever, man.
Yo, way to stick up for the damn team, man.
I'm about to sink this game-winning layup.
Y'all ready? Whoa, whoa, whoa! - Oh! - Oh! Yo! Cam! You all right, man? Yeah, yeah.
I'm good, bro.
You sure? Uh! That was a bitch move, man.
Yeah.
No.
No, no.
No.
No.
No.
No fighting in my crib.
You can leave And you, come with me.
We'll get you some ice.
It's all good.
Fine.
Hey, girl, you leaving? I came here to study, and since it's clear I've lost Damon for the night, yeah, I'm out.
But you're gonna miss the best part.
And that is? I don't know, but don't you want to see it? Nate, this is not funny.
I am stressed out.
I just found out I didn't get a single job I interviewed for.
I've got a group presentation, no group, and I haven't got a single tennis practice in all day! - Easy.
- I need to find a ride.
Where is Keisha? Oh, it's happening.
The best part's happening right now.
Run! Go! Come on! Run! We gotta go, too! Keisha! It's the first week of school.
Have you lost your mind? Hi, Daddy.
Wait.
You're the president's daughter? Keisha? Keisha? What? Hmm - Simone? - Mm.
Hey, hey, what's what's wrong? - I don't I don't know.
- Oh OK, OK, OK.
OK.
Come on.
Come on.
I got you.
I got you.
Come on.
Come on.
I thought you were gone for the week.
Well, they canceled my conference, and I'm glad they did.
Can't have you in my house partying Hey, hey, guys.
Guys, guys, - something's wrong with Simone.
- Oh, my God.
Oh what - Is happening to me? - Shh.
My dear, I think you are having a panic attack, all right? Now breathe in Out.
You got it.
You got it.
You got it.
You are Good to go.
Now rest.
Thanks for bringing her home.
No problem.
She'll be fine.
Look, I heard about the tag on your class door.
Campus security's on it, and I'm here if you need anything.
Thanks, but I have all the support I need.
You can't be both good cop and bad cop.
I'm really sorry, auntie.
I really didn't mean to worry you.
I'm just glad a panic attack was all it was.
I don't even know why it happened.
I never had one before.
You've never been this stressed before.
College is a different ball game, honey.
You're not at home anymore.
It's all on you.
It takes a second to learn to manage it all.
- What if I can't? - Look, you are at an HBCU now, and one of the many benefits is that when you start to doubt yourself, you can point to examples of black excellence and see what is possible.
Stalker much? Heh.
Yeah.
I, um, came here for the same reason I'm guessing you did.
Inspiration? Yep.
So how you feeling? I mean, the panic attack is over with, but The rest, I don't know.
They all did great things with their lives, and I can't even get a work study job and balance tennis and classes.
Well, you know, they all didn't do it overnight, but I definitely get feeling the pressure.
Usually, I work my stresses out on the court, but I can't even do that.
There's no court time available.
Will a field do? - Hey! - Let's go.
Hey, 90.
Go, man.
4, drop.
Let's go! Let's go! Looked like somebody got their groove back.
Yeah.
That was crazy.
It's weird, though.
Like, why now? Nothing's changed.
I mean, think about it.
You were just playing for fun.
You weren't focused on saving a team.
You know, real talk? Carrying the entire weight of the whole baseball program on my shoulders Scare me.
Yeah.
Real talk, it should.
That's a lot.
It's like what if I'm not good enough, can't even unite my team? Well, have you shared those fears with them? - Heh! Oh, you got jokes now.
- No, I'm being serious.
Damon, in order to be a leader, you got to be vulnerable.
You got to let them guys really see you, and they need to know that "the great Damon Sims," he got fears, too.
Wait, so you're you're really being serious? I am.
Honestly, you remind me of Joe Starks from "Their Eyes Were Watching God.
" Y'all are both self-confident and always need to be in control.
Oh, yeah.
You know you're not the only one to finish that book, right? Your struggles for independence and identity They remind me a lot of Janie's.
I'll take that.
You know, Zora Neale Hurston, she had her similar issues, too.
Author is just as relatable as the work.
You should take comfort in that.
You know what? I think I just figured out how to close our presentation tomorrow.
Zora Neale Hurston, even with all her accolades, she once was just like us, a HBCU student persevering under the pressure of everyday life while finding power in her own voice and culture.
Now no disrespect, Professor Corte I think we should do more than just read black literature, but study the authors, too, because the timeless themes and relatable characters in their work are a result of their personal journeys What the hell is she doing? And you know what? I also think our initial lit reading focus should only be books written by HBCU alumni because the benefit of being here is that, even when we start to doubt ourselves, we can point to examples of black excellence, people just like us who show us what's possible.
- Thank you.
- All right.
All right, everybody.
Take 10, and then the next group is up.
You know you killed that, right? All while sporting some new threads, I see.
No, a little athleisure swag.
That was not the speech you were supposed to give.
OK, and? You don't run me on or off the court, girl.
Miss Hicks, impressive speech - Thank you.
- All 3 of you.
In fact, I think I'm going to implement your suggestions.
Oh, wow! Well, thank you, sir.
I Miss Hicks, you clearly have a passion for our alums.
You interested in a job? I oversee the alumni office, and I think you'd be an asset to us, plus you Oh, no, no.
You had me at "job.
" - I'll be there.
- OK.
- Thank you.
- Good.
Oh, uh, Sims, you're Cam Watkins' roommate, right? - Yeah.
- He hadn't come to class today.
Any idea why? Yeah, bruh.
He's not answering any of us.
Man.
Yo, Cam, open up.
It's Art.
Cam? No, no, no, no.
No, Cam, Cam, Cam.
Hey.
Hi.
Yes.
I need an ambulance.
I have a 19-year-old black male.
His pulse is weak, and his pupils are dilated.
Yeah, he hit his head pretty hard yesterday.
Hey, hey, Cam, Cam? Stay with me.
Look at me.
Stay with me.
Stay with me, all right? You have a doctor's note from the President of the University clearing you? That's right.
I'm not gonna ask how you pulled that off.
Get in there.
You made it in time for queen of the court.
Congratulations, Hicks.
You made it to the last match.
Thank you.
Who's my opponent? That would be me.
Let's go, Tay! Damn.
Hate to admit it, but Did your thing out there.
What, is hell freezing over? Don't get it twisted.
These are still my courts, and we're still competitors, but Very few people could do what we just did out there.
I give props when props are due, so I know you're in there.
I'm literally just gonna keep knocking until you let me in.
Hello? What, so I have to find out from Damon that you're back from the hospital? Yo, what happened to texting me? What did the doctor say? They checked me out, OK? I'm good.
Try again, because what I saw when I examined you wasn't good.
You see I'm fine, right? No.
What I see is you about two seconds away from punching a wall.
What did the doctor say? I have a brain aneurysm, a'ight? They say I can't play football.
Cam, I'm so sorry.
I know how bad this must hurt right now.
Do you? I'm about to have the thing that I love, the thing I worked my whole life for taken away from me.
Your dream's within your reach, but you're too damn scared to have a conversation with your old man, so, yeah, I don't want to hear nothing from you right now.
You can close the door on your way out, please.
Hicks, number two in queen of the court.
- I know.
I'll do better.
- Can I finish? You made your way through almost the whole team.
That's no small feat for a freshman And that is why I'm offering you the final spot on the team.
Are you serious? - Oh, my God, you're serious.
- Yeah.
You're serious.
Oh, my God! You're serious! Oh, thank you! Thank you so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you! - Be ready.
- I will.
OK, thank you, thank you.
Problematic is a kind word for you Thank y'all so much for coming.
I know it is super last-minute.
Please.
We were not gonna miss the opportunity to celebrate our girl making the tennis team.
- OK.
- And it looks like you're not only being celebrated here.
Oh, my God.
I'm going crazy.
- Yeah, look at you.
- Yeah, you did.
- You look so good.
- Yo, that's what's up.
- Ha ha ha! - Going crazy.
- OK.
- Girl, look at you.
Your road has been bumpy as hell, but you managed - to get everything you needed.
- Hmm.
And what did Alicia Keys say in "Superwoman"? - Hmm? - "Even when you're a mess, you still put on a vest "with an 'S' on your chest.
" Girl, you know I love Alicia Keys.
Me, too.
So you haven't talked to the team yet.
So, what, are you psychic now? No, but when I text J.
R.
About family dinner, he asked if you were gonna be here and then said he wasn't coming, so I just figured the two were connected.
Look, I'mma get it done, just Shaking off the nerves first.
I faced my fears, and even though I lost queen of the court, I still won a spot on the team.
Handle your business.
Who knows what'll come of it? Hey, Daddy.
Hmm, there's my baby girl.
Ha ha ha! Ahh So, um, I just I have an old colleague who runs the hospital where your friend Cam was taken.
I heard you advocated for him with passion and an elevated understanding of the medical care he needed.
- Oh - You are gonna make an excellent doctor.
I can't tell you how proud I am of you.
Your mom would be, too.
Now, what'd you want to talk about? Oh, I just, um I just wanted to pick your brain on the best way to attack organic chemistry.
Mm-hmm.
This don't look like a Coach Marcus meeting.
Uh, yeah, that's because it's not.
Heh! I called the meeting, fellas.
Figured that this would be a good way for the team to unwind.
Hey, all right.
Look.
Hey, hold up.
Hold up, hold up.
I know I've been a lot.
I'm sorry, fellas.
Man, look, I don't know about y'all, but The pressure of needing to save this team, like, it's it's getting at me.
You know, like, I stay up at night not even knowing if I'm good enough, and sometimes I think that maybe I'm not a good fit for what y'all already started to build here or if I let you guys down.
So basically, you're scared.
Hell yeah, bro.
I'm scared every damn day.
Now hold up.
Let's keep it 100, fellas.
We all a little scared.
Fear don't have to be a bad thing.
It can come along the ride with us, long as it don't stop us.
We can use it as motivation Together.
You see that right there? That's why I think that J.
R.
should be our team captain Because that's the kind of leader that we all need out there on that field Myself included.
All in favor? Huh.
Heh.
What do you say? - Yeah.
- Oh, yeah! All right, all right, all right, all right, all right.
First order of business let's relax and play some video games.
I'm going to assume you didn't ask me to drop by so I could school your boys in "Gang Beast.
" Oh, man.
What's going on? Um I was the anonymous source who helped you break the cheating scandal.
Look, you were the one person who I knew who would do the right thing without hesitation.
I'm sorry.
I should have told you sooner.
- Why are you telling me now? - Because it's not fair, suffering all this backlash alone.
Look, this should cost me something, too.
That's why I'm going public.
You will do nothing of the sort.
While I hate you kept your involvement from me, the last thing I want to do is destroy what you're starting to build.
Listen to them.
You have the beginnings of something.
If your team found out, they'd stop trusting you, and your season would be dead before you even start.
This team, this program is your second shot at your baseball dream.
I wont let you torpedo your life or those boys' lives.
What about your life? I don't regret a single thing I did, and if they want a fight, I'll give them one.
Focus on your team.
I got me handled.
Ahem.
Oh.
Uh, Coach, this was my idea, so so if there's any punishment We'll both take it.
As team captain This is as much on me.
Hey, I want you all to listen up now.
I got something to say.
I got next.
Come on.
Thanks, Coach.
Yeah, come on.
Oh, Coach I know what you were saying before.
My pitching was off because I was too in my head.
Why didn't you just say that? Because You needed to figure it out on your own, And you did.
Yeah, well, no offense, but your coaching style, it still need a little work.
How about I whup your ass in "Killer Instinct," huh? Huh? How about that for a coaching style? Well, come on.
Let's go, then.
Let me borrow the controller, man.
All right.
Got to get comfortable.
